To be honest,I am not really a big fan of romance/comedy (rom/com) but you know what?I just adore this movie.It's hilarious,heart-warming,sad and just plain wacky!
This story about love revolve around a (kinda) pathetic man name Tom Hansen who fall in love with a new girl in the office he work at name Summer Finn who just does not feel the same way.The movie bring us audience back and forth in between their ups and down relationship which lasted for 500 days.We sympathize with our protagonist,Tom,as he tried to understand Summer who keep her feeling towards Tom mysterious throughout the whole movie which is painfully cruel and funny at the same time.This is a girl who does not want any serious relationship and wanted to make it casual but we found her in the next scene naked on Tom's bed...Weird huh?
The artistic aspect of this movie is just over the top!It can almost be considered as an art house film...wait,this film DID won at the Sundance Film Festival.
This is not your usual romance movie.you know why?Because "its not a love story...It's a story about love"...This could not be more true.
